The conventions told the story

Over the past month, I watched the RNC and the DNC conventions. The RNC was upbeat and lively. The DNC was negative and vindictive.

The DNC omitted God and Jerusalem in their opening day. When the media picked up on this, the chair, Antonio Villaroso, tried to get a vote to put God and Jerusalem back in. The voice vote was unmistakable in the negative, not the positive. Mayor Villaroso tried three times to get a positive vote and failed. My conclusion: Liberals hate God.

Then Joe Biden comes out and says how great Obama was to take out Osama bin Laden. But Obama used George W. Bush's intelligence information, obtained by water-boarding, etc. According to one book, he also knew for some time where bin Laden was but took no action. Valerie Jarrett, Obama's most-trusted adviser, allegedly talked Obama out of going after bin Laden at least two times. Someone else convinced Obama to go after bin Laden. Hillary?

Bill Clinton (Slick Willie) comes out and says no president could turn around an economy like Obama inherited. Ronald Reagan did. Jimmy Carter left office with higher unemployment, higher interest rates and less manufacturing. Reagan created 23 million jobs, increased tax revenues and cut taxes.

Now, it's Obama's turn. He says he has a plan to create 1 million new jobs. Is this the same million jobs he promised four years ago? He also said Romney and Ryan have no foreign diplomatic experience. Does he mean like his vast experience when he took office? He knew next to nothing. He bowed to foreign leaders and apologized all over the world for America's exceptionalism.

One message on a screen at the DNC said, “Government is the only thing we all belong to.” I always thought government belonged to us, the people. You remember, “We the people ...”?

This entire administration is not in favor of the U.S. It wants to punish success and creativity and make the people serfs of government.
